]]>Catholics celebrate this Sunday as divine mercy Sunday in honor of Sister Faustina, who had visions of Jesus in which he spoke of his mercy to everyone. So great is his mercy that his name can even be said to be Mercy, as pope Francis has said. Our muslim cousins call Allah the Compassionate, the Merciful. Our Jewish forerunners have handed down to us many psalms of his mercy, such as Psalm 118.

]]>With so many churches being closed the following prayer might be useful.

Lord Jesus, I believe that you are truly present
in this sacrament of sacraments.
I love you above all things
and I desire to give myself to you
as fully as you give yourself to me in the host.
And I give you thanks for remaining with us
until the end of time in the eucharist.
What other God has given his people
his own flesh and blood.

]]>Matthew20:29
The mother of the sons of Zebedee asks Jesus to grant that her sons may sit one at his right and one at his left in his kingdom. Jesus says “You do not know what you are asking … Places in the Kingdom are not mine to give. They belong to those for whom they have been reserved by my father.” The sons of Zebedee do not get what they want. They are only promised suffering, which they accept for Jesus’ sake.
God does not grant all of our prayers, no matter how earnestly and long we pray. he knows what we need and what would hurt us. When he does grant prayers it may be something related but unexpected. Let us continue to pray with trust in him.

]]>We are told to rejoice in the Lord, but God also rejoices in his works. He sees everything not only as good but also as beautiful, his work of art. In Proverbs 8:30-31 God’s wisdom, who can be identified with Jesus, says. “Then was I beside him as artisan; I was his delight by day, before him all the while,playing over the whole of his earth, having my delight with human beings.” God delights in his works, especially us, despite all our sins.
